Comments: Swanner intrigues scouts with his hitting ability, especially if he can stay behind the plate defensively. With a good approach and nice swing at the plate, his bat is very projectable for average and power. He moves well behind the plate, and it looks like he could fill out and not lose that flexibility. His overall catching shows glimpses, but it's unclear whether he'll be able to stick behind the plate long-term. The good news is he's athletic enough to handle another position, and his bat looks like it could play just about anywhere. That should be enough to get him off the board within the first few rounds.Enhanced Scouting Report

Comments: Parker has the chance to be a 20-20 athlete this college year: 20 home runs this spring following the 20 touchdown passes he threw for the Clemson football team last fall. He's an elite athlete who has really put things together at the plate this year, hitting for average and power. He has the arm for right field, though he'll have to improve his routes and reads in the outfield. He doesn't have a long track record of success at the plate, so a team taking him will have to believe that this is the real Parker, not the one who hit .255 last season. That team will also have to think it can sign Parker -- whose dad played in the NFL -- away from his remaining years of football eligibility.Enhanced Scouting Report

Comments: Bettis has had more success as a reliever than as a starter, particularly last summer as Team USA's closer, and that's likely where he'll find his future role. Bettis has a plus fastball, a hard breaking ball and a changeup at his disposal, though sometimes mechanical issues flatten out his stuff and make him hittable. He does go right after hitters, and being shortened up for an inning or two should help his stuff play up. Texas Tech moved him back into a relief role (if he didn't relieve on Friday or Saturday, he would start on Sunday) and that could help his Draft status. Even if he doesn't close at the next level, he could be a pretty productive setup guy.Enhanced Scouting Report
